Everything was perfect! Came for New Year's Eve and had a perfect server, perfect drink, perfect starter, second and main course.. had to take my steak and Sweets to go as we were going to the NYE Party at Eve on Adam's and you need to get there early. I will definitely return.

Service here is excellent. I sat at the bar and Steven was knowledgable about the offerings and very attentive. I wantes something not too heavy and he recommended the half order od pasta with a meatball with a salad. The caeser was good. Not a ranch lovers ceaser but an olive oil rich dressing. It was a perfect lite dinner. It is a great atmosohere.

This Italian restaurant is a true delight! From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and we were seated quickly. Our server, Hayden, was fantastic—attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. and he made sure our glasses were always full. The Espresso Martini was a huge hit! This place offers amazing food, a welcoming vibe, and excellent service. Highly recommended!

While visiting the Capitol for some meetings we had an amazing night out at IL Lusso. Stephen and Eli were our primary servers and both did an excellent job catering to our every need. We started with the grilled octopus. After recently having it in Greece we were hopeful it would live up to that experience. It did. It was cooked to perfection! Notice the size of the sides. We mistakenly ordered three sides for two people. We were not prepared for the amount of food they brought! We enjoyed a great steak and Zucchini pasta for our main course. We capped off the night with their seasonal cheesecake special. If you are celebrating something special or looking for a high quality meal make sure to give them a try.

I sat at the bar for coffee and desert. John the manager, immediately made me feel welcomed and provided with menu options. Hayden, besides being a bartender, is a great barista. His vanilla infused latte is amazing (most of their espresso options are) the price for espresso drinks are fair and great quality. The ricotta cheesecake is gluten free and well balanced. I def be back!

1st Class establishment....is an understatement. Tallahassee has never experienced a dining experience like this. I experience a taste experience like no other ever. And I have traveled the country people. We are lucky to have tis hidden gem on food and atmosphere. KALEIY AND SYRE will show you the way!!!!!! And please ask for the Clifton as your cocktail. It's named after me. And please request Kailey she will guide to the menu. And please let her know that cliff showed you the way to true decadence. And please tip your server well like I always do. Hospitality is the hardest job ever. Q

Fantastic experience for me and my family. Staff are polite and attentive and the food was excellent. I didn’t think after the Waygu steak and truffle pasta that my meal could get any better, but the dessert was especially superb! My children loved their meals too. All in all one of the best spots to eat in Tallahassee. We all left happy and full. Will definitely be back.
